Rebecca is a name representing beauty in the Bible, an Old Testament classic that reached the heights of revived popularity in the seventies but is still a pretty and prudent choice. The Becca short form is more stylish now than homespun Becky. The biblical Rebecca was the wife of Isaac and the mother of Esau and Jacob. Rebekah was a common form of the name in the bible.
